Dear Sahuaro District Residents,
During recent district meetings, concerns about feral cats have surfaced several times. We researched state law and here is what we found: it is illegal to intentionally, recklessly, or knowingly inflict any animal to physical harm, injury, cruel mistreatment, neglect or abandonment. Cats are free roaming and there are no licensing, leash, or mandatory spay/neuter laws for cats. However, there are programs available to the public for trapping, sterilizing, and releasing cats. For more information:
Please remember and recognize our Veterans next Monday on Veterans Day. See information below for Glendale's Veterans Day Ceremony at the Main Library.
